:why: wtf r u talking about?
No one's eyes get big when you mention Atlanta except for working class or middle class brothers. You do not think beaches, stars, renowned cultural events (not saying it is true but perception), etc. People think of Atlanta as a working town, lower to fair cost of living, ratchet life and strip clubs. I swear I never heard a person say I am going to vacation in Atlanta besides brothers :yeshrug: . Athletes with cacs in their ear are prone to thinking the same way.

their traffic is bad

if you havent been to Atlanta, then you have no idea. Its augmented by their piss poor transit system.
I heard it is because one has to jump on the highway for everything. Miami's public transportation leaves much to be desired but the roads are so connected that it is a plethora of ways to get to the same destination. I heard it isn't like that in ATL.

yeah, 85 is the road that connects everything.

If Greater Atlanta had a better transit system, traffic wouldnt be as bad. They dont.

The over inflated $$$ of going to a sports game will really be telling in the coming years. Would you spend $200+ to go see a Hawks game during the week? And to think the owner was supposed to fetch $1B is ridiculous.

Traffic? nikka please. Just like everywhere else, you adjust for the traffic.

Atlanta is black Hollywood, these nikkas just tryna be stars showing up fashionably late.

It's also so many transplants, most there don't really care about the Hawks.

They need to improve the product. Once they do that, they will build the fanbase through the youth, which will give them lifelong fans.
